Hannah

I started at Sunstate powered by Academy of Aviation about a year ago, and I could not have chosen a better flight school. So far, in that time, I've earned my Private Pilot License and Instrument Rating and am now working toward my Commercial certificate.

The community here is outstanding - not just in aviation, but in every way. I've met some of the most supportive and knowledgeable people, from instructors to fellow students, all eager to share their experiences and help each other grow. I know no one is just a number here. We are all in this together and look out for one another!

The school also does a fantastic job accommodating students' schedules, making flight training accessible and flexible. Plus, the fleet is top-tier, and our maintenance team is impeccable - they're always willing to answer questions and help students learn more about the aircraft in the hangar.

I genuinely could not be happier with my experience here!

Great school. All the instructors were there to help me out with my private pilot license as well as free ground school lessons held everyday. I just earned my private pilots license and I am continuing on into my instrument rating with them. The more you put into the training the more the instructors will help throughout every phase of training. Highly recommend if you are looking to become a pilot because these guys have the same mindset.
